  • 121 the Herpetofauna of the Doc Thomas House in South
    121 Florida Field Naturalist 27(3):121-123, 1999. THE HERPETOFAUNA OF THE DOC THOMAS HOUSE IN SOUTH MIAMI, FLORIDA WALTER E. MESHAKA, JR. Everglades Regional Collections Center, Everglades National Park, 40001 SR-9336, Homestead, Florida 33034-6733 [email protected] Thirty-nine species of exotic reptiles and amphibians are established in Florida (Butterfield et al. 1997; Meshaka et al. 1999), 34 of which are found in Dade County. Nearly all of these exotics inhabit buildings and disturbed habitat. The Doc Thomas House (DTH), built in 1931 by Dr. Arden Hayes Thomas in what is now the city of South Miami, represents one such site. The property is a remnant parcel of the once extensive rockland pine/tropical hardwood hammock mosaic of the Atlantic coastal ridge (Lodge 1998). One year before his death in 1974, Dr. Thomas donated his house and approxi- mately 1.2 ha of land to the Tropical Audubon Society for environmental and education purposes. The property was poorly tended from the mid 1950s until the early 1990s, when efforts were made to restore the site to pineland and two hammocks by removing unwanted exotic species and replacing them with native flora. However, some exotic plants were retained for historical reasons. The area north and west of the property is the commercial district of the City of South Miami. Urban residential areas surround DTH to the south and east. Consequently, the house grounds represent a small, semi- natural island within an ocean of human commerce and habitation. DTH thus provides an opportunity to measure the response of the southern Florida herpetofauna to the res- toration of a fragment of once natural and expansive habitat that is now imbedded in an urban setting.

    A HISTORICAL BIBLIOGRAPHY OF THE BUILT ENVIRONMENT IN MIAMI AND SOUTHERN FLORIDA Originally compiled by Malinda Cleary, Richard Longstreth, and Aristides J. Millas Edited by Richard Longstreth 1999, revised 31 December 2017 This bibliography focuses on historical accounts written during the past three decades. Owing to the extent material, and the nature of much of its contents, I have made no attempt to separate popular from scholarly accounts or general histories from those that are devoted to the built environment. The basic divisions are geographical, followed by one on architects and landscape architects in the region. My gratitude goes to Melinda Cleary and Aristides Millas for compiling the core of these listings.

The subject parcels, included in this proposal, are situated within the State Land Use Conservation District Limited (Lawa ‘I Kai) and Resource (Submerged lands of Lawa’i Bay) Subzones (Exhibit 2). The NTBG property and the larger Lawa’i Valley have historically been utilized for residential, agricultural, and botanical uses since the mid-i 800s. Historical records indicate that the mauka lands, not part of this petition, of the NTBG property were utilized for animal husbandry and grazing practices while the area of Lawa ‘I Kai were typically used for rice and lo’i cultivation. The agricultural development of Lawa’i Valley included the construction of a number of camps and clusters of homes for the myriad of employees that worked the numerous agricultural fields.
